Yeah, I'm moderately surprised that this went uncaught for this long (and
I think it may be a bug in groff, which if recently introduced may explain
that).  This was fixed by:

https://git.eyrie.org/?p=perl/podlators.git;a=commitdiff;h=a5cbfbaee05ebfc5eb30268521159a9df7fe2307

but the fix is not very trivial.  I have a few other major changes that I
need to finish and then can release podlators 5.00 and start the process
of getting this into Perl core.
